A couple of people mentioned that it's not as smooth as they'd like, and at first it seemed that way. Keep in mind that this was after driving a 16,000 mile 997. Once I got comfortable with the new shifter position and put some miles on it, I've found it to be just about perfect. Cruising on the highway at 75 in 7th gear with the tach showing about 2000 rpm was nice. Also, there was no need to downshift into 6th if I needed a bit more power to maintain my speed up a hill or to accelerate.
